Multistate Sales Tax Issues: Digital Products and Services (Completed)

Sales and use tax compliance has changed considerably since the Wayfair decision three years ago. This presentation will review these changes, with a particular focus on businesses selling digital goods and services (SaaS, IaaS, information services, IT services, etc.). We will provide an overview of nexus rules, including physical nexus and Wayfair thresholds, as well as a review of recent guidance impacting sellers of digital products and services. The webinar will also address how taxing authorities identify businesses to audit, as well as tips and traps in a sales tax audit.
